Our Process:

The F.A.S.T. Marketing Framework

When we start with clients, we like to do a quick marketing audit using a framework we created called F.A.S.T.

It helps you understand where you stand on your messaging, existing campaigns, tech stack and current talent. Marketing is a journey, and every day brings an opportunity to improve. We help you understand how.

F

Focus

Can everyone on the team articulate the value of the product in a clear and consistent, disciplined manner?

A

Activity

Are we doing enough of the right things effectively in a coordinated fashion? How can we accelerate output and increase experimentation and agility?

S

Systems

Do we have the right systems in place to quickly find out what works, optimize based on results and quickly respond once we have the right formula?

T

Talent

Do we have a team of A players who punch above their weight, excel at their roles and understand their career path?

Kind words

Some thoughts from those we've worked with.

Richard is an incredibly talented marketing executive.

"He very effectively combines his strategic vision with his tactical ability to execute. I strongly recommend Richard to any organization that makes marketing a high priority."

Kent Barnett
CEO, Performitiv (formerly KnowledgeAdvisors)

Richard is perhaps the best marketer that I have had the chance to work with.

"While he is extremely strategic, he also is never afraid to roll up sleeves to get stuff done. Richard is a valued asset to multiple parts of an organization and is a key member of the leadership team. I welcome the chance to work with him again.”

Eric Rosenthal
CRO, Emissary.io

Richard is without question the smartest and most effective marketer I have ever had the privilege to get to know or work with.

"In addition to just being an all-around great guy, Richard is equally masterful at both the strategic and execution arms of marketing."

Brian Johnson
SVP Client Solutions, Networked Insights

Richard is a ‘game changer’ - he has the ability to take a company’s strategy/vision to the next level by making it come to life through a strategic and targeted approach.

"He creates spot-on messaging and spectacular visualizations that really resonate with the market. Richard is a brilliant leader and business partner. He’s results oriented, creative, intelligent, and an absolute pleasure to work with.."
